And since I mentioned Roman Collars in the post below

BOSTON, Sept. 27 — A grand jury indicted Bishop Thomas L. Dupre, the former head of the Springfield, Mass., Roman Catholic diocese, on two counts of child rape, but he will not be prosecuted because the statute of limitations on the case has expired, a county district attorney said Monday.

Meanwhile – Up in Canada

The former Roman Catholic bishop of Antigonish, N.S., ended his brief turn as a fugitive Thursday, handing himself over to police in Ottawa.

Raymond Lahey, 69, walked grimly and silently through a crowd of reporters and photographers into the police station, where he was fingerprinted and interrogated by investigators for the first time.

Once hailed as a brave advocate for survivors of child sexual abuse, Lahey faces one count of possession and one count of importation of child pornography, after the discovery of images on his laptop computer at Ottawa’s airport while he was returning from a foreign visit on Sept. 15.

Too bad, these two bad apples didn’t make the right career decisions.  If they had chosen wisely they may have been able to get away with it for a few more years, and then have Hollywood try to protect them.  Like this man:

One of these things is not like the other…

One of these things does not belong…

As the old sesame street song goes….

So kiddies, today we are playing a game.  I am going to show you three pictures

Ok… Which of these things is not like the other?  The answer is A.  Roman Polanski is not like the other two.  Since he isn’t a priest, he is an artist, and he is a Hollywood director, which makes his rape conviction, and his fugitive status moot.  You see, you only get nailed by the law if abuse children and you are a priest.  However, if Roman had been wearing the collar which his name mirrors, you can bet your happy butt that Hollywood would be doing its damnedest to have his happy little rear end nailed to the wall.
